You led your life with an open heart Moving with purpose, empathy and stride. A treasured daughter, granddaughter, niece, friend, Whose compassionate spirit was our pride. Your determined mind and spirit furthered your education With a Management & Administration Certificate Joining the business world in varied occupations. Your empathetic soul chose to see hurt, And rushed to stand by the forgotten side. Volunteer work with Teen Touch, Christmas Cheer Board, MB Youth Center and United Way Tried to bring sympathy and understanding to those who cried. Your mind was a heaven for creative writing Where poems and stories showed your sensitive mind. Running with a passion of yours Saying that it made the body and spirit kind. At home you showed your cat babies jet and Coco boundless love They knew the comfort and safety of your love and touch. The finish line came far too soon, my girl, But you ran your life race with a beautiful light Your heart of gold failed you in the end And are aching hearts must let you go. Your sweet soul has met with your dad John, Reunited in a love that cannot fade. Rest now sweet Kristen, your work is done. I love you and deeply miss you my sweet Kris.
Your mother Joyce
